    Yep, that’s how it works. Ever hear of “nerve pain” ? … Never existed until some big drug company had invented a treatment for it. Drug companies are not looking for “cures” … they much prefer treatments that need to be taken for the rest of the patients’ lives.

    This could be applied in so many ways.

    Remember the purple pill? You might need it. I don’t care what it’s for, I want it…

    I’ve never heard of headache virus! Aspirin may be effective in treating a headache but, I’m pretty sure a virus requires a steroid or just “tincture of time”!

    From an old BC comic of probably around this same time:

    “I’ve invented a headache pill.”

    “How does it work?”

    “Perfect—it gave me the worst headache I’ve ever had!”
